Two-Phase CFD and PIV EFD for Plunging Breaking Waves, Including Alternative CFD Approaches and Extensions for Air/Water Ship Flow
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper represents a first step towards the development of two-phase CFD methods for small and large scale ship hydrodynamic applications. Two-phase level set approaches are being implemented in CFDShip-Iowa to extend the modeling capabilities of the current version 4 along with complementary experiments for validation. The experiments are conducted in an open channel flume using bottom mounted bumps to generate plunging breaking waves. Experimental work includes determining the optimum flow conditions for generating periodic and impulsive plunging breaking waves, theoretical analysis for free surface instabilities that are observed at low speeds prior to the breaking process, and experimental measurements for validation of the theory. Two twophase level set methods, the Heaviside function method (HFM) and the ghost fluid method (GFM) are extended to curvilinear body-fitted grids to simulate air/water free surface turbulent flows and the methods are applied to plunging wave breaking, sub-critical free surface flows generated by a submerged bump, and free surface turbulent flow both in air and water around a ship model DTMB 5512. The results show good agreement with experimental data. Another method using two-phase level set embedded boundary Cartesian grid, has also been implemented and results are presented for some preliminary computations. The simulation of impulsive plunging breaking waves is in very good qualitative agreement with the experimental data. A computation of non-breaking waves generated by a submerged hydrofoil has also been carried out and the results compared very well with the experimental data.

Plunging wave breaking is of great importance to ship hydrodynamics, including strong turbulence with large amounts of air entrainment, bubbles, droplets, jets, and spray. Previous experimental fluid dynamics (EFD) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies on plunging wave breaking are mainly focused on the global structures of the wave breaking, such as wave elevation, jet, air cavity, an...
متن کاملCFD prediction of ship capsize: parametric rolling, broaching, surf-riding, and periodic motions
Stability against capsizing is one of the most fundamental requirements to design a ship. In this research, for the first time, CFD is performed to predict main modes of capsizing. CFD first is conducted to predict parametric rolling for a naval ship. Then CFD study of parametric rolling is extended for prediction of broaching both by using CFD as input to NDA model of broaching in replacement ...

For the investigation of stratified two-phase flow, two horizontal channels with rectangular crosssection were built at Forschungszentrum Rossendorf. The channels allow the investigation of air/water co-current flows, especially the slug behaviour, at atmospheric pressure and room temperature. The test-sections are made of acrylic glass, so that optical techniques, like high-speed video observa...
